Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food processing technology, and in particular to a fermentation tank for food processing. Background Technology

[0002] When processing food, it is often necessary to ferment it first to satisfy people with different tastes. Currently, fermentation tanks are generally just sealed containers where ingredients are added and fermented naturally. Existing food fermentation equipment cannot automatically regulate the temperature, and because natural fermentation does not allow the ingredients in the upper and lower layers to be mixed with each other, the ingredients are not mixed evenly, resulting in poor fermentation effect.

[0003] Publication number CN210528907U discloses a fermentation tank for food processing, including a tank body. Mounting plates are fixedly connected to both sides of the bottom of the tank's inner cavity. Heating wires are fixedly connected to the inner sides of the mounting plates, and heat-conducting cylinders are sleeved on the surface of the heating wires. A motor is installed at the top right side of the tank body, and a drive wheel is fixedly connected to the motor's output end. This invention uses a motor to drive the drive wheel to rotate, which in turn drives a driven wheel to rotate. The driven wheel then drives a connecting shaft to rotate, which in turn drives a stirring blade to rotate, allowing the upper and lower layers of food to mix. The mixture is then heated by the heating wires. A temperature sensor detects the internal temperature of the tank and compares it with data stored in a USB memory. When the detected temperature is higher than the data in the USB memory, the processor controls the heating wires to stop working; when the detected temperature is lower than the data in the USB memory, the processor controls the heating wires to continue working.

[0004] While the above methods can achieve uniform mixing and improve fermentation results, they also present difficulties in discharging fermented materials and limit the heating area. Therefore, we propose a fermentation tank for food processing. Utility Model Content

[0005] The main objective of this invention is to provide a fermentation tank for food processing, which solves the problems of difficult material discharge and limited heating area by setting up an adjustment and sealing unit and a disturbance heating unit.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: a fermentation tank for food processing, including a horizontal tank body and a stirring motor, and further including: an adjustment and sealing unit and a disturbance heating unit disposed between the horizontal tank body and the stirring motor;

[0007] The agitation and closure unit includes a strip box, a lead screw, a support block, a transverse sleeve, a support block, and a closure lid. Two strip boxes are symmetrically embedded and fixed on the outer circumferential surface of the transverse tank. The lead screw is movably disposed on the inner wall of one of the strip boxes. Two support blocks are provided and located in the two strip boxes respectively. One support block is threadedly connected to the lead screw. Two transverse sleeves are fixedly disposed on the sides of the two support blocks and extend movably to the outside of the strip box. Two support blocks are fixedly disposed on the end faces of the two transverse sleeves respectively. The closure lid is fixedly disposed between the two support blocks. The agitator motor is fixedly installed on the side of the closure lid.

[0008] The disturbance heating unit includes a rotating shaft, oblique disturbance strips, heating wires, and a pusher disc. The rotating shaft is installed at the center of the side of the sealed tank cover via bearings, and one end of the rotating shaft is connected to the output shaft of the stirring motor. Several oblique disturbance strips are fixedly arranged at equal intervals on the outer circumference of the rotating shaft and are hollow inside. The heating wires are fixedly installed inside the oblique disturbance strips, and the pusher disc is fixedly arranged at the other end of the rotating shaft.

[0009] Preferably, the adjustment and closure unit further includes a guide rod, which is fixedly disposed on the inner wall of another strip box and movably passes through another support block.

[0010] Preferably, a turntable is fixedly installed at one end of the lead screw located outside the strip box.

[0011] Preferably, the rotating shaft and the lead screw are arranged parallel to each other.

[0012] Preferably, a thermometer and a control panel are installed on the transverse tank.

[0013] Preferably, a feeding pipe is fixedly installed on the outer peripheral surface of the top of the transverse tank, and a pipe plug is installed on the feeding pipe.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the fermentation tank for food processing of this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0015] 1. In this utility model, by setting up an adjustment and sealing unit, by holding and rotating the screw in both directions outside the strip box, one of the support blocks connected to the screw threadedly can be adjusted and moved inside the strip box under force. The horizontal sleeve is driven by the support block to extend and retract on the strip box to adjust the exposed area. The support block is driven by the horizontal sleeve to help the sealing tank cover adjust the distance between itself and the horizontal tank body. The disturbance heating unit can be installed into the sealing tank cover or move the fermentation material to the outside of the horizontal tank body. The guide rod can guide the other support block to slide and move in coordination with the adjustment process of the horizontal sleeve and the sealing tank cover. The equipment makes the discharge operation of the fermentation material convenient and sufficient.

[0016] 2. In this utility model, by setting up a disturbance heating unit, the operation of the stirring motor can control the rotating shaft to rotate inside the transverse tank. Several inclined disturbance strips, which are equidistantly fixed on the outer circumference of the rotating shaft and are hollow inside, reciprocate to disturb the fermentation material. The heating wires fixedly installed inside the inclined disturbance strips can fully heat the fermentation material in each area. When the rotating shaft is moved away from the transverse tank by the closed tank cover, the pusher disc on the end face of the rotating shaft can push the fermentation material out of the transverse tank. The equipment heats the fermentation material more fully and comprehensively. Attached Figure Description

[0052] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:

[0053] Holding the screw 202 outside the strip box 201 and rotating it clockwise and counterclockwise causes one of the support blocks 203, threadedly connected to the screw 202, to slide and adjust within the strip box 201 under force. The transverse sleeve 204, driven by the support block 203, extends and retracts on the strip box 201 to adjust its exposed area. The support block 205, driven by the transverse sleeve 204, helps the sealed lid 206 slide and adjust its distance from the transverse tank body 1. The guide rod 207 guides the other support block 203 to slide and slide in coordination with the transverse sleeve 204 and the sealed lid 206. During the process, the stirring motor 4 operates to control the rotating shaft 301 to rotate inside the transverse tank 1. Several inclined disturbance strips 302, which are equidistantly fixed on the outer circumference of the rotating shaft 301 and are hollow inside, reciprocate to disturb the fermentation material. The heating wires 303, which are fixedly installed inside the inclined disturbance strips 302, fully heat the fermentation material in each area. When the rotating shaft 301 is moved away from the transverse tank 1 by the closed tank cover 206, the pushing disc 304 on the end face of the rotating shaft 301 pushes the fermentation material out of the transverse tank 1.
